Hi,
I have an XML fragment that I am trying to compile using JAXB. The compilation executes successfully but there are some differences between the
java files generated by JAXB when compared to XMLBeans. Here is the XML fragment:
<simpleType name="MyDataType">
<restriction base="xsd:string">
<enumeration value="Text"/><!-- enum const = 0 -->
<enumeration value="Integer"/><!-- enum const = 1 -->
<enumeration value="Float"/><!-- enum const = 2 -->
<enumeration value="Boolean"/><!-- enum const = 3 -->
<enumeration value="TimeStamp"/><!-- enum const = 4 -->
<enumeration value="Code"/><!-- enum const = 5 -->
<enumeration value="MultiLanguageText"/><!-- enum const = 6 -->
</restriction>
</simpleType>
JAXB will generate the following class:
@XmlType(name = "MyDataType", namespace = "http://www.example.com/aSampleNamespace")
@XmlEnum
public enum MyDataType{
@XmlEnumValue("Text")
TEXT("Text"),
@XmlEnumValue("Integer")
INTEGER("Integer"),
@XmlEnumValue("Float")
FLOAT("Float"),
@XmlEnumValue("Boolean")
BOOLEAN("Boolean"),
@XmlEnumValue("TimeStamp")
TIME_STAMP("TimeStamp"),
@XmlEnumValue("Code")
CODE("Code"),
@XmlEnumValue("MultiLanguageText")
MULTI_LANGUAGE_TEXT("MultiLanguageText");
private final
String value;
MyDataType(String v) {
value = v;
}
public String value() {
return value;
}
public static MyDataType fromValue(String v) {
for (MyDataType c: MyDataType.values()) {
if (c.value.equals(v)) {
return c;
}
}
throw new IllegalArgumentException(v);
}
}
XMLBeans would apply an ordinal to the elements like so:
public interface FlexFieldDataType extends org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlString
{
public static final org.apache.xmlbeans.SchemaType type = (org.apache.xmlbeans.SchemaType)
org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlBeans.typeSystemForClassLoader(FlexFieldDataType.class.getClassLoader(), "schemaorg_apache_xmlbeans.system.s463C563221D006C73594BDAF6D050EA7").resolveHandle("flexfielddatatypeb902type");
org.apache.xmlbeans.StringEnumAbstractBase enumValue();
void set(org.apache.xmlbeans.StringEnumAbstractBase e);
static final Enum TEXT = Enum.forString("Text");
static final Enum INTEGER = Enum.forString("Integer");
static final Enum FLOAT = Enum.forString("Float");
static final Enum BOOLEAN = Enum.forString("Boolean");
static final Enum TIME_STAMP = Enum.forString("TimeStamp");
static final Enum CODE = Enum.forString("Code");
static final Enum MULTI_LANGUAGE_TEXT = Enum.forString("MultiLanguageText");
static final int INT_TEXT = Enum.INT_TEXT;
static final int INT_INTEGER = Enum.INT_INTEGER;
static final int INT_FLOAT = Enum.INT_FLOAT;
static final int INT_BOOLEAN = Enum.INT_BOOLEAN;
static final int INT_TIME_STAMP = Enum.INT_TIME_STAMP;
static final int INT_CODE = Enum.INT_CODE;
static final int INT_MULTI_LANGUAGE_TEXT = Enum.INT_MULTI_LANGUAGE_TEXT;
/**
* Enumeration value class for com.sumtotalsystems.sumtotal7.sumtotalbo.FlexFieldDataType.
* These enum values can be used as follows:
* <pre>
* enum.toString(); // returns the string value of the enum
* enum.intValue(); // returns an int value, useful for switches
* // e.g., case Enum.INT_TEXT
* Enum.forString(s); // returns the enum value for a string
* Enum.forInt(i); // returns the enum value for an int
* </pre>
* Enumeration objects are immutable singleton objects that
* can be compared using == object equality. They have no
* public constructor. See the constants defined within this
* class for all the valid values.
*/
static final class Enum extends org.apache.xmlbeans.StringEnumAbstractBase
{
/**
* Returns the enum value for a string, or null if none.
*/
public static Enum forString(java.lang.String s)
{ return (Enum)table.forString(s); }
/**
* Returns the enum value corresponding to an int, or null if none.
*/
public static Enum forInt(int i)
{ return (Enum)table.forInt(i); }
private Enum(java.lang.String s, int i)
{ super(s, i); }
static final int INT_TEXT = 1;
static final int INT_INTEGER = 2;
static final int INT_FLOAT = 3;
static final int INT_BOOLEAN = 4;
static final int INT_TIME_STAMP = 5;
static final int INT_CODE = 6;
static final int INT_MULTI_LANGUAGE_TEXT = 7;
Is there anyway I can achieve this behavior using JAXB? The ordinals are references throughout the client code and it would be nice to preserve this behavior ...
